London Street Collection 2018

Join us for our biggest fundraiser of the year!

It's not only an incredible fundraising opportunity, where we're hoping to raise enough to build a large playground in one weekend, but also an awesome chance to meet students from all over the country engaged with the same cause as you!

Our average participant raised over £85 in one day last year. Participants in the past have raised over £350 on this day - so what're you waiting for? Get involved now!

The collection is primarily open to all Gorilla Trek and Uganda Volunteer Project Volunteers, but that doesn’t mean you can’t invite friends or family to come and collect with you, just ensure they have registered for a ticket.

Please bear in mind our free accommodation is now full, so if you want to attend you will need to pay for your own accommodation. A suggested list of affordable hostels in London are:

East African Playgrounds is a UK registered charity and international NGO, focused on East Africa, primarily Uganda. Children need to play to access their childhood, allowing them to gain all the developmental benefits that play has to offer giving them the tools for future success.

This incredible volunteering experience is just a fraction of the cost of most. Just because it is low cost does not mean it is low quality. We are able to provide our volunteering project at a reasonable price because we don't know have large overheads or work with third party providers who need to make profit. We aim to be transparent and accountable with where the money we receive goes.
